AXN to air TV show 'The Firm' from 19 Feb

MUMBAI: Sony Pictures Television has announced that the AXN will air the series ?The Firm? from 19 February 2012.

It is based on John Grisham?s novel of the same name. Recalling the 1993 movie adaptation of the novel starring Tom Cruise, this new TV series aims to capture the same sequence of drama.

Continuing with the plot from the movie, Mitch McDeere and his family emerge after 10 years in the Federal Witness Protection Program, with a goal to reclaim their lives and future. But they have never expected that the same danger they faced 10 years ago would still haunt them to this date.

Josh Lucas takes over the lead role from Cruise as Mitch McDeere. The other cast members include Juliette Lewis. Grisham and Lukas Reiter both serve as executive producers.
